CLEMATIS 
Success with Clematis depends greatly on the situa- 
tion in which they are planted. The ideal planting 
site provides a cool shaded area for the roots and full 
sun or part shade for the tops. Shade can be provided 
for the roots by planting on the north or east side of 
a bushy shrub or by erecting a sun-shield of shingles 
near the base of the plants. Care must be taken in 
planting and tying. New stems are slender and 
brittle. Clematis supports itself by means of tendrils 
that twist readily about a wire or string.
